Overall rating

Paul made this tour excellent for my father and me. He was very knowledgeable and full of information about the history of the city, the Holy Roman Empire, the rise and fall of Hitler and the Nazis, and many other facts and figures. His discussions of the topics were expanded upon by references to quotes from important writers and philosophers who have studied the Holocaust. My father is hard of hearing and Paul spoke loud enough for him to hear and with excellent diction that made it easy to understand him. It was also clear that Paul was passionate about the subject. Three weeks in Europe and this tour was my father’s favorite, in large part due to Paul and his ability to make a narrative from the history. I highly recommend this tour with Paul.

The whole activity was very funny and a lot of fun. The breakfast was delicious and the atmosphere of the restaurant was wonderful. The puzzles were funny and walking through the old town while solving the puzzles was just great. All in all, we had an incredible amount of fun and had a great and delicious breakfast and were very satisfied. The only thing that could be "improved" would be to write at the meeting point which restaurant I had to go to as the meeting point, as it was not clear from the address where to meet. But that is just a small suggestion for improvement for such a mega great event.

I'm putting a review in about the meeting place...unfortunately due to the crowd and trying to get thru it by the church, I was 5 minutes late...if they were there for the food tour I'm not sure what they did to know who the tour guide was...the crowds were insane....sorry I missed the tour!

Paul was one of the most amazing guides we have had the pleasure of doing a tour with. He was extremely knowledgeable, insightful and had wonderful stories to share, which really elevated our entire experience. Absolutely phenomenal guide!

I enjoy Tom’s tour! We walked around where I couldn’t go by myself so it was a special experience for me⭐︎ I learned a lot about Nürnberg history and some funny jokes ;) I love to go again. Thank you so much!
